This song was Paul McCartney's prototype for "I'm Looking Through You." The lyrics deal with his romantic troubles. (thanks, Jon - Danville, CA)
Comments:
They must have had Buddy Holly's Words Of Love, which they had covered the year before, in mind when recording this song.

I think the Help! CD is a great CD and one of their best. I'm not fond of It's Only Love, however. And Dizzie Miss Lizzie is not one of my favorite cover songs. I find it's repetitive guitar riff annoying. Not that they are bad songs, but by Beatles standards, not great. My point was that Tell Me What You See seems overlooked and underappreciated and the Help! CD very underrated when lists of the best Beatles CDs are discussed.

I love this song, mostly from the wood cylinders and the tambo. By the way the electric piano was played by Paul.

It reminds me about my childhood-days in the 70´ies when I was listening to the compilation album:"Love Songs"(from 1977).Not Knowing at that time that the track was from the "Help" Lp. I hope that EMI will re-release the "Love Songs" record on cd cos´it´s a good mixture of beatles songs.

Good song! It sort of sounds like "I'm Looking Through you." Is George Martin playing an electric piano? It sounds like one.`

Steve, I think all the songs from Help are great (or at least good) songs.

I consider this song to be a hidden gem off the Help CD. I think it is a beautiful song with great harmonies. If you haven't heard this song, by all means give it a listen. All but 2 or 3 tracks from the Help CD are great songs.

Geroge Martin played the piano, like in most of Beatle songs where piano is a played.
- Mario, Maracaibo, South America
